What a tool! Still funny! Video of people not wanting to be taped + security guards!

you are correct....however what you both fail to realise is that this is not excersising ones rights, this is seeing how far you can push those rights.
he is not filming those people because he wants to, or because he needs to, he is doing it because he can.
And while this may be perfectly legal, at some point people will act on it, police will be called, complaints will be made, and it will continue until inevitibly a law will be passed to make this practice illegal.
Just because something isn't illegal does not make it appropriate.

Quite correct:

- the videotaper is almost certainly well within his rights
- exercise of rights IS important and a good thing to do generally
- the videotaper is still a dickhead

There are better ways to do this, but this falls under the head of 'I will strongly defend your right to do things I find obnoxious and/or offensive, because that's how we do things in the USA'.
